Chapter 277 Who Broke the Formation?
Chapter 277 Who Broke the Formation?
But there were more than just these two magical beasts. Liu Yue pushed Hua Yun'er into the artificial hill and said in a low voice, "Don't move here."
They then left the artificial hill.
"Master, something terrible has happened! The seal on the arena has been broken."
A servant came to report.
The arena and the hall are quite far apart, but for Warcraft, that distance is nothing.
The guards in the manor managed to subdue some of the magical beasts, but some still escaped and headed straight for the main hall.
Mr. Mu emerged from behind the screen. Upon seeing Mr. Mu, the head of the Hua family frowned deeply.
Before he could speak, Mr. Mu said, "The person who escaped from the secret room is still inside the Hua residence."
"The formation in the backyard..." The head of the Hua family hesitated before speaking.
Mr. Mu sneered: "I underestimated him. He can break my formation."
Patriarch Hua was shocked. Looking across the entire Azure Dragon Realm, there was no formation master more powerful than Mr. Mu.
It is precisely because of Mr. Mu's formation that the Hua family has been so peaceful all these years!
But now, this person doesn't even take the formation set up by Mr. Mu seriously.
"The entire Hua Mansion must be sealed off; not even a fly can be let out!" Mr. Mu said, embarrassed and annoyed. "I want to see who he really is."
He narrowed his eyes and smiled, "It might be an old acquaintance."
A loud bang was heard, and the sound came from the garden.
When the guards appeared, all the magical beasts were already prostrate at the boy's feet.
"How did you end up here?" The Hua family head, who had rushed over upon hearing the news, looked at Liu Yue with a furrowed brow.
The guards surrounded Liuyue.
"Jun Qing, is that you?"
The head of the Hua family clenched his fist into his sleeve.
How could it be Jun Qing! This young man whom he had his eye on, the one he even wanted to marry his daughter to.
"Patriarch Hua, what's wrong?" Liu Yue asked, her eyes full of confusion.
"You broke into the backyard, broke the formation, and even opened the seal on the arena. Jun Qing, what is your purpose in entering the Hua family?"
The guards surrounded Liu Yue, and if the boy in the center made a move, their swords would be enough to turn him into a sieve.
"Patriarch Hua, I don't understand what you're saying." Liu Yue stood with her hands clasped behind her back, glancing indifferently at the guards: "Is this how Patriarch Hua treats his guests?"
"Ha, stop pretending to be crazy! Arrest this brat, and I don't believe I can't pry your mouth open."
"father!"
Before she arrived, Hua Yun'er's voice came first.
She emerged from the cave in the artificial hill.
"Yun'er? What are you doing here?"
The head of the Hua family frowned as he looked at his daughter who was blocking Liu Yue's way.
“Young Master Jun saved me just now, and he arrived in the backyard after me! He did it to save me. If it weren’t for Young Master Jun, I would have died just now,” Hua Yun’er said quickly.
"So, Patriarch Hua thought I was an assassin? You came to the Hua family with ulterior motives?"
Liu Yue sneered, "It seems I shouldn't have come, Third Miss. In that case, I'll take my leave."
"No, that's not it. My father just doesn't understand what happened." Hua Yun'er grabbed Liu Yue's arm.
"Master of the house."
The guard rushed over, "We found a mangled corpse in the backyard, and this was on its body!"
The guard took out a feathered arrow.
It was the trap-equipped arrow in the hidden room. The guard said, "This arrow is embedded in the assassin's shoulder; he must have been poisoned by the arrow!"
Upon seeing this feathered arrow, the head of the Hua family, who had previously harbored doubts about Liu Yue, was relieved.
That instantly dispelled my suspicions.
Mr. Mu said that it was impossible for anyone to escape unscathed from the trap array.
Now, it was expected that the petty thief would be shot by an arrow and die from the poison.
"Now that the real culprit has been caught, can Patriarch Hua let me leave?" Liu Yue's eyes swept contemptuously over the guards in front of her, her powerful aura sending chills down their spines.
He subconsciously looked at the head of the Hua family.
The head of the Hua family was also relieved that things had turned out this way, as Jun Qing was not that petty thief.
"It's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding," the head of the Hua family said with a beaming smile. "It's just too much of a coincidence!"
"Is that so? It seems that Patriarch Hua still has doubts about me. In that case, I'd better leave as soon as possible. If anything is lost from the Hua residence, I'll be in deep trouble."
Say it.
Liuyue turned to leave.
The head of the Hua family desperately tried to signal to his daughter with his eyes.
"Junqing, my father didn't mean it, so please don't take it to heart." Hua Yun'er hurriedly blocked Liuyue's path. "Is that alright?"
The woman raised her eyes and looked at her pitifully.
If a man saw such a gaze, he would probably fall for it, and even Liu Yue, a woman, was moved.
"Third Miss, I am very grateful that you treat me as a friend, but I'm afraid I can no longer stay in the Hua family." Liu Yue shook her head.
"Father, apologize to Young Master Jun!"
Hua Yun'er glared angrily at the head of the Hua family.
Originally, Hua Yun'er wasn't so infatuated with Liu Yue, until—the scene of the boy saving her just now happened.
She couldn't help but succumb, to fall into depravity—.
She will remember that scene for the rest of her life.
The head of the Hua family knew he was in the wrong, and if he let Jun Qing leave like this, all his previous efforts would be in vain.
“Young Master Jun, this matter was indeed a misunderstanding on my part. It was my fault. Rest assured, now that the thief has been caught, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with you, Young Master Jun, and such a thing will not happen again.”
The head of the Hua family said with a smile.
Liu Yue nodded; "Those who are loyal to the emperor are naturally innocent."
"I must thank you for saving Yun'er." Seeing that Liu Yue no longer cared about the matter, the Hua family head breathed a sigh of relief. "What do you want? Just say the word. As long as it's within my power, I'll grant it to you. How about it?"
Upon hearing this, Hua Yun'er's eyes lit up.
Liu Yue said, "The Third Miss and I are friends. It's impossible for me to stand by and watch someone die. It was just something I did on a whim."
Hua Yun'er was somewhat disappointed when she didn't hear what she expected.
But then I realized that Junqing really did have feelings for me!
Liu Yue and Hua Yun'er left the backyard. The Hua family head, who was standing there, watched their backs as they walked away, and his eyes suddenly darkened.
Where is the body?
-
After the body was retrieved, it was placed on a straw mat. The head of the Hua family came over, and the servants lifted the white cloth on the straw mat, revealing a scarred face.
The stench was unbearable! The stench was so strong it seemed to hit you right in the head.
Even the well-informed head of the Hua family was shocked by the tragic scene.
The original appearance of the corpse was no longer recognizable.
Seeing Mr. Mu approaching, the head of the Hua family said, "It seems that Mr. Mu's judgment was correct."
Mr. Mu looked at the body covered by a white sheet and frowned.
I feel like something's not right, but I can't quite put my finger on it.
This eerie feeling was so long ago, so long ago, that he had almost forgotten about it.
"Has the head of the family investigated that man named Jun Qing?" Mr. Mu suddenly asked.
"not him."
The head of the Hua family said firmly, "Just now, when I was in the main hall, Jun Qing was right under my nose. Although he later went into the backyard, there was a reason for it. This matter was not done by Jun Qing."
Unless one person can split into two!
One person was disguised in the hall, while another broke into the backyard.
But this is simply impossible! What's more... the corpses are all here now, and the owners of the corpses have been poisoned by the poisoned arrows in the dark room!
This matter has been resolved.
Seeing the Hua family head speak so confidently, Mr. Mu said calmly, "I hope the family head makes the right bet."
"Mr. Mu is overthinking it. No matter what, Jun Qing is from the lower realm. Do you really think a kid from the lower realm can break your formation?"
The head of the Hua family said with considerable confidence.
"Mr. Mu's array formation skills are unmatched by many in the entire Nine Provinces!"
“That’s true.” Mr. Mu nodded, but he felt that something was missing, something was wrong, something was very wrong.
The head of the Hua family ordered his men to roll up the corpse on the straw mat and take it away.
"Master, something terrible has happened! A terrible thing has occurred!"
"What happened now!"
The head of the Hua family rebuked him with great displeasure, "What kind of behavior is this, making such a racket!"
"Fourth, Fourth Young Master, the poison has taken effect! The physicians are helpless!"
Upon hearing this, the head of the Hua family suddenly looked at Mr. Mu: "Mr. Mu?"
"I told you long ago, there is no cure for that poison."
Mr. Mu said calmly, "It's getting late, I should go into seclusion."
After that, he turned around and left.
"Mr. Mu, Mu...!"
-
Maids came and went in and out of Hua Zixing's residence, carrying basins of clear water in and out basins of murky black blood.
"Ah!" Black blood seeped from every pore of Hua Zixing's body, emitting a foul stench.
"It hurts...it hurts! Father, save me..." Hua Zixing screamed in agony, as if he had used up all his strength.
He lay limply on the bed, blood still seeping from his pores, and the wound from the arrow was festering and smelly. The doctor could only temporarily scrape away the rotten flesh.
As more and more flesh rotted, within the short time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a hole the size of a bowl was dug out of Hua Zixing's arm!
The doctor broke out in a cold sweat; his body was already soaked with cold sweat.
The more he wiped away the cold sweat, the more he broke out in a cold sweat. In all his years in the profession, he had never seen such a raging and violent poison!
If we hadn't dug out all that rotten flesh, Hua Zixing would have died long ago!
When the head of the Hua family rushed over and saw this scene, his eyes rolled back, and he almost fainted.
"W-what happened?!" The head of the Hua family grabbed the physician by the collar. "How could this have happened? Didn't I tell you to detoxify?!"
What happened to that hole the size of a bowl? If a person has such a big hole in their body, even a god couldn't save them!
The bloody and foul-smelling scene was chilling.
"This poison is something I've never heard of before," the physician said tremblingly as his collar was grabbed. "I can only save your life by removing the rotten flesh!" If the rotten flesh wasn't removed, Hua Zixing wouldn't have survived this long.
The head of the Hua family released the physician, suddenly remembering the pitiful state of the little thief.
"I have already given the antidote to the Fourth Young Master, but it can only temporarily protect his heart meridian. There is no other way."
The doctor, who had been released, collapsed to the ground, having never seen such a dangerous poison in all his years of medical practice!
That's too cruel! Not only did they kill people, but they also tortured them slowly, causing them to die in agony and despair.
How ruthless must the person who developed this poison be!
"Find him! Keep searching for doctors! I remember we hosted Physician Qian at a banquet today!" the Hua family head roared. "Hurry up and go to the front hall to fetch Physician Qian!"
